About
Best Before keeps an eye on your expiry dates so you don't have to. Add anything with a shelf life — groceries, medicine, cosmetics — and Best Before reminds you before it goes off. One look at the Home screen answers a single question: is everything OK? REMINDERS THAT ACTUALLY REACH YOU Get a notification 7, 3, and 0 days before something expires, at 9 in the morning. One clear reminder per day, never a pile of them at once. POINT THE CAMERA, SKIP THE TYPING Scan the printed date straight off the package — no manual entry. The camera can even read the product name for you, so a whole item is added in one pass. You always confirm before anything is saved. OPENED, NOT PRINTED? For cosmetics and anything with a "period after opening" symbol, enter how many months it lasts once opened and Best Before works out the real expiry date for you. ADDING IS TWO TAPS An item needs only a name and a date. Everything else is optional. No categories to pick, no long forms to fill in. YOUR DATA STAYS WITH YOU No account, no sign-up. Your items stay on your devices and sync between them through your own iCloud. Need a copy? Export a backup as a .bestbefore file from the share sheet, and import it back by tapping the file in Files, Mail, or Messages — the app asks you to confirm before anything changes. MADE TO FIT Light and dark themes, and six accent colors to choose from. Free. No subscriptions, no ads.Read more
